Opinion: Democrats must be practical in their straggly to win seats in this Congressional election. They must engage in strategies which clearly are of concern to voters today: opposing the Iraq War, the economy & jobs, healthcare, and brining unity back within the country.Democratic candidates must take clear positions and bring plans forth on all of these issues.

Democrats must also seize an opportunity to directly target certain demographics: Hispanics, African Americans and Evangelicals.

The strength of Democrats would be ore effective on the grass roots; wining through volunteer organizing. A ground organization can beat the money of the GOP.
